Friday 5: Food for getting in shape

friday february 21

Happy Friday, which is also National Sticky Bun Day (mmm!) and National Grain-Free Day. I should tell Mom that, as she adheres to a gluten-free diet. Keeping it short today, as I’m freaking tired of sitting at a computer. One…

A tale of two creamers

at left: Natural Bliss Sweet Cream creamer with Real Milk and Cream. at left: Natural Bliss Sweet Creme creamer with Coconut. It's plant based and the two bottles are quite similar.

A few weekends ago we needed coffee creamer, so we grabbed our usual brand from the usual spot at our usual store. That Monday I poured it into my coffee and took a giant glug before I noticed it was…

Random Thoughts: Hot Ramen, WHCD, and Starbucks

I took a little break from the Internet this weekend. Mother’s Day is hard for me, and even I am tired of hearing myself whine about it so I dipped out for my own good. Lately, I’ve been in a…

Friday 5: More questions about our favorite topic

friday, september 1

Rabbit rabbit! Happy September, which, blah. Even though it continues to be actual, official summer through September 22, I am trying to switch myself into an autumnal mindset. Today is also National Forgiveness Day (I forgive, I do not forget),…

Sleepy Tuesday

a random lavender stalk from my garden, which has nothing to do with this post.

Here’s a little lunchtime blog for you! My colonoscopy prep began with a few tiny laxatives taken before bed last night. My biggest worry was being hangry all day but after a very early (4am) and …eventful… morning I really…

January DC trip!

Kim, cheesily pretending to hold the Washington Monument in her hand.

WM and I had a difficult time figuring out what to give each other for Christmas. We decided that we’d go the experience route instead and take a long weekend in Washington DC. Our goal was a balance of visiting…

Pesto!

This semester, WM has his night classes on Mondays and Wednesdays, meaning I’m on my own for dinners. He’s not a fan of garlicky foods and garlic would my patronus, if a patronus could be a fragrant bulb. Meaning that…

Friday 5: Happy ASLIRT

Happy Friday! Today was my summer Friday off and … it rained. Womp womp. I don’t have a shore house or relatives with a shore house, so we are daytripping folk. If it rains, we stay home. Except Mom and…

Hello!

About Me

I've been blogging for over twenty (2 decades! 2-0!) years and I'm apparently one of the few over-50 female bloggers who haven't sold out to THE MAN yet; hence this blog remains quirky, homespun, and unprofitable. No big. However, if you're from Disney, Doritos, or Dave Matthews Band, I'm open to talk about selling out.

I live in Southern New Jersey with my husband WM, and our dog Murphy. I'm an adult who likes Disney but not a Disney Adult. I used to work a fun (really!) office job in Philadelphia, but since March of 2020 I'm a work from home hermit. So if you're looking for a childless, slightly round, marginally boring GenX woman's blog to follow, you've come to the right place! :)
